stay tuned for more (and some updates, finally, next week!)

it makes me mad

a random posting on a message board has enraged me. i can NOT believe some people are being cut out of therapies for their kids.

my response/thoughts... i have absolutely no experience with being denied therapies for sy, but GO GET 'EM, TIGER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! seriously, best of luck to you... you will be in my thoughts. it's just plain messed up that, due to a recession that will not last your child's lifetime, they feel they need to cut therapies which WILL LAST A CHILD'S LIFETIME and ultimately determine their strengths vs weaknesses. seriously, like my son's silly tv show says, "keep trying, don't give up". :)

Has it been a year already?

and here i thought i'd post like all the time...

sylas' first birthday is in 3 weeks, and i haven't thought about this time last year in quite awhile. i remember sitting around crying and reading "gifts" over and over. i remember feeling paralyzed. i remember thinking why me, what did i do to deserve this? i remember wondering what would my baby ever be able to do? and i'll tell you what... it's a year later and i have NO TIME to sit around and wonder... i have a talker, a straw-drinker, a solid food eater with 2 teeth, a roller, a squeaker, a screamer, an army-crawler, a cheerio thrower, an attention-hog and the sweetest little cooer and laugher in the world... certainly not what i thought i'd have this time a year ago. our baby is just like his big brother in every way... in fact, the only way he's different is his T-21.
